Oklahoma's state song?

Widely known as Texas' hat, Oklahoma is making headlines (for once) by having people vote for its state song online. Not surprisingly, 8/10 songs are shitty oldies; the other two very surprisingly being by the All-American Rejects and The Flaming Lips. Apparently Oklahoma's state board had nothing better to do, so they decided to offer this strange chance to the public. I wish other states would do this. I would love to see Illinois' and Michigan's state songs be by Sufjan Stevens.Click here to go vote. I voted for The Flaming Lips, because it would be an awesome P.R. move for...Oklahoma to do such a thing. Yes, I did just imply that The Flaming Lips are more famous than Oklahoma. Suck it, deeply forested areas.
